Day 1 - Glasgow to Amsterdam

Arrived safe and sound in Amsterdam on the way to Tanzania. Roger was very disappinted to discover that we weren't actually on the redeye and that went from Glasgow to London.

He was further disapinted to learn that he wasn't actually getting a bed on the Amsterdam to Africa leg.

Nearly had the first disaster as myself and David deep in conversation tried to board the Glasgow flight to Palma. This also made us late and last to board our proper flight! Much to the disgust of our fellow travellers.

11 guys fully kitted in kilts provided some entertainment for other passengers!


John & Kathleen at Glasgow Airport

Hamish has arrived safe and sound in Amsterdam



Hamish travelling in style, could he get to see the captain?

  1. Hope your flight to Kilimanjaro is less eventful than the one to Beijing....although,it sounds as though you had a dramatic start before you even left Glasgow!My thoughts are with Kathleen having to cope with you bunch.Good luck to one and all.....but especially Kathleen!
